Conspiracy theories surround the death of Swedish journalist Stieg Larsson, who died in 2004 leaving three unpublished novels, which became the best-selling Millennium Trilogy.

Noomi Rapace stars in the film adaptation of the first book as Lisbeth Salander, a punky loner with a criminal past and a brilliant mind, who makes a living hacking computers.

REVEALED: The Twilight Saga: Eclipse trailer featuring Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart

Posted by Jo Kelly on March 11, 2010 3:44 PM

It's finally here!!! The first Eclipse trailer. I hang my 27-year-old head in shame as I admit I'm a closet age-inappropriate Twihard. I'm ashamed even to use the word "Twihard".

The story of my addiction is a sad tale and there is no hope of recovery.

REVIEW: Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland with Johnny Depp

Posted by Jo Kelly on March 9, 2010 4:02 PM

ECHO arts editor Catherine Jones: TIM Burton creates a typically weird, wonderful and wild wonderland as he re-imagines Lewis Carroll's Alice stories in this latest cinematic outing.

The movie visionary has always ploughed his own furrow in a world of profit-driven conformity.

MOVIE REVIEW: Eddie Murphy in Beverly Hills Cop (1984)

Posted by Jo Kelly on November 17, 2009 1:00 PM

EDDIE Murphy isn't my cup of comedic tea...or so I thought. Protesting I don't find him funny in the slightest, I settled down to Beverly Hills Cop (1984).

He plays talented but reckless Detroit police officer Axel Foley set on revenge for the shooting of childhood chum Michael Tandino. His investigations lead him to Beverly Hills and more specifically, to corrupt art dealer Victor Maitland.

This box set had sat unopened on my DVD shelf since last Christmas and it was a choice between watching it or listening to my boyfriend shoot more Russians on Call of Duty: Modern Warfare on the Playstation (it's driving me mad already).

REVIEW: In the Loop

Posted by Kevin Matthews on June 20, 2009 11:43 AM

If you take a look at his back catalogue on the Internet Movie Database you'll quickly see just how instrumental Armando Ianucci has been in shaping British comedy. For the past 15 years he has been one of the creative geniuses behind the likes of Brass Eye, The Day Today and even Alan Partridge.

But one of his greatest creations has been The Thick of It which is a spoof fly-on-the wall insight into the working of government departments. What you say, doesn't sound very funny? You're wrong. Very wrong.

It's hilarious.

REVIEW: Star Trek XI / Zero

Posted by Kevin Matthews on June 8, 2009 9:00 AM

Finally got around to going where no man has gone before ... ok thousands had been before me because the film's been out for weeks - Star Trek.

I wasn't expecting much. There's been far too much Trekkie hype - and that lot scare me.
But after two hours seven minutes - you know it wasn't so bad.

REVIEW: Angels and Demons

Posted by Kevin Matthews on June 7, 2009 10:17 AM

I have a confession to make (which is kind of apt for a couple of films about Catholicism). No matter how unfashionable it is to say it, I kinda liked The Da Vinci Code movie.

Yes, I know, it was over-hyped to the hilt, but it was good fun.
